Gem Wallet Supports Sei EVM: The Fastest Layer 1 EVM Blockchain

Gem Wallet Supports Sei EVM: The Fastest Layer 1 EVM Blockchain

Gem Wallet now supports Sei EVM - Sei’s full transition to a parallelized EVM blockchain is complete, and every Gem Wallet user can send, receive, buy, swap, and stake SEI as of April 11, 2026. 400ms finality. Full Ethereum compatibility. No setup required.

What Is Sei EVM?

Sei is one of the fastest Layer 1 blockchains with over 1 million daily active users and a peak volume of 32 million transactions per day. The network launched in 2023 as a high-performance blockchain for trading, and in July 2024 became the first parallelized EVM - fully compatible with Ethereum, including Solidity and Vyper smart contracts, with no code changes required for deployment.

In March 2026, Sei completed its transition to EVM-only: the chain shed the Cosmos layer and focused entirely on what it does best - speed and scalability for the next generation of DeFi applications. Any Ethereum app, tool, or contract works on Sei out of the box.
